Snaith Tomb Circa 7 Metres South Of Church Of St Michael

The Snaith tomb, located approximately 7 metres south of the east end of the Church of St. Michael, is a chest tomb likely dating from the late 17th century. It commemorates John Snaith and his wife Frances. The tomb is constructed from sandstone ashlar and features a slab with a moulded edge. The end supports are adorned with double cord-moulded edges and a prominent low-relief skull with cross-bones. The sides of the tomb are damaged, retaining only the corner cord-moulding. The top of the tomb is partly eroded and includes a small incised cross at the head of a long inscription, which is inscribed in letters characteristic of the late 17th or early 18th century.
